  6. Thank you for everyone’s input. Yesterday I bought PB blaster from O reailly. Give a spray treatment on bolt 3 times a day. Done. Now I have brand new bushing installed.
  7. on engine side, original comes big and fat this one is thin so use two washer on that side. that how it's can't move. Engineering is simple.
  8. Go to autozone part no 8201 (97 ES300) if i remember right,(search my previous thread) home depot two metal bushing ,you done .$35 for dogbone mount with lifetime warranty. and$0.36 for two bushing. THe parts looks little different but its works. I am assuming 95 and 97 are same. yes just unbolt and put new one. Engine will remain the same position. Hope this help.

  10. Hello, Today my mechenic did transmission service. He changed gasket and filter, of course he used after market parts. When i reached home i did check level it was about 1/2" over the hot top marks. is it okay to leave it or i should drain some out? Thanks in advance.

  12. Hello, I am not sure i did ask this question or not. When i turn my car on, after 15-20 sec while i reversing my car i always hear some noise. I thought that was brake. But today I left in park position and that noise came. I am sure that is from ABS because In my 99 Sienna same type of noise(Little louder)comes but after 5 sec when I turn car on. Is this normal? or something is going wrong with my ABS. How to check? Thanks in adcance.
  13. Those fan also connect to a/c so if you have a/c on auto it will click on. Hope this help.

  16. Hello, Good morning, We got 2005 Jeep Liberty Ltd. Now has 500-600 miles I am thinking to do first oil change. First, Should i wait till 3000 miles or do it now? Second, Regular oil (10W30 Pennzoil) or go with Synthetic(Mobil 1). It's differnt car, Engine works same way. Please input. Thanks in advance.
  17. Thanks, Rick at Midas is very honest, personally he advise not to mess with it. He says continue driving you don't need to replace unless its fail inspection (comes in Dec 2005)or Engine light shows up. FYI, Toyota told me $1300 for hole peice. Manifold to cat. converter. Again, thanks for your input. When you have plan to visit family, send me email.
  18. Hello, Thanks for your offer but i am little far away from you.(Houston) anyway, i stopped by MIDAS they found catalyst converter sheild was broken from back nuts. They took it out that sheild. I have questions: Should sheild is very important to have it? They told me, rust is there but no holes in it. they can change catalyst converter for $225 (Universal).Is this price is okay? is it safe to drive without sheild and rusted catalyst converter? Thanks,
  19. i just replace mine for $19.00 from Stealer.
  20. Hello, ArmyofOne, You are right, Friend of mine who is good mechenic he told me same. its like safety valve. Thanks,
  21. Hello, I opened throttle body and I was surprised because it was looking good from the outside, but the inside looked bad. I took a toothbrush and cleaned it. Since I cleaned it, the idle improved and the car runs better. I still cannot find the problem for the rattling noise while car is stopped and is idle. Somebody told me that it could be the catalyst convertor cover, is that a possiblity? Thanks
  22. No comments?????
  23. Hello, This thing really surprize me. Today i pulled PCV from Gasket and turn the car on. There was no positive crank pressure in valve cover. there was a vaccum on PCV side. So, while you driving your car, oil fumes created by heat, pcv sucks and put back in intake. I also open front valve cover tube, no pressure and no vaccum. Why they called PCV. Thanks,
  24. It was on previous subject: I asked Lexus dealer for cabin filter (97 ES300),their price was $69 I called Oreally to see wix makes cabin filter for my car. How lucky i am? Wix part# 24895 price $25.99 I bought from them installed, Project finished. Again, thanks to everyone for their help.
